In my inbox today, reminiscent of the dawn of spam:
I am a financial consultant, A client of mine died in 2005 in boat mishap and he has a judgment fund of US$16.7M to be claimed. He has the same surname with you hence contacting you. If you are interested in be presented as beneficiary, forward to me your names, cell, Phone/fax, profession, age and country so I can contact you.
Thank You,
Mr.Henry Makaba
No Mr. Makaba, thank YOU! Just send the money directly to me. No need for my details.
Love,
Molly
About Molly Holzschlag
Earlier in life, Molly avoided a regular job including those silly start-up ventures and chose instead to write a lot of books and articles and stuff on Web standards, and talk a lot about them, too. She now avoids the former, while the latter is an ongoing inevitability.
To learn more about Molly and her work, you can check out her blog at http://molly.com/ or interact with her on Twitter @mollydotcom. Better yet, come have a chat F2F at RWX Fort Lauderdale 2011!
